More than 30 years after starting his business, Azzedine Alaïa has launched the brand’s first fragrance. According to the New York Times, the new “Alaïa Paris” perfume was created with the help of Beauté Prestige International and the head perfumer on the project describes the scent as “cold water falling on hot chalk.”

LiftAge – SMOOTHING – TONING – DEEP FIRMING FOR SKIN

Lysedia Laboratory offers innovative blends to fight sagging skin and wrinkles. Unlike skincare regimens that use the botulinum toxin or its derivatives, which act on frown lines by interfering with neural transmission in order to inhibit acetylcholine production at neuromuscular junctions, Lysedia skin care products do not destroy or paralyze anything. They simply prevent the production of acetylcholine at the source. Painless and nontoxic, they smooth and tone the skin, focusing on delicate zones like the under-eye area. I chose them for my Night routine and Eye-care.

It comes in SPF50 as well and although the high protection it is extremely easy to apply. Perfection! Get it HERE and the oil version HERE also in SPF50 HERE and the oil HERE.

For me wearing much make-up in the hot summer days is a BIG No-No! There is pretty much nothing worst than melting make-up. So with not too many options left let us at least have perfect eyes.

Light Fantastic Cellular Concealing Brightening Eye Treatment is my favourite concealer out there. The beauty tool is nothing short of fantastic- it brightens, refreshes and illuminates the skin around the eye area as well as anywhere else on the face while concealing all imperfections on the way. It also helps banish the appearance of dark under-eye circles, uneven skin tone, fine lines and the feeling of puffiness while showcasing and highlighting the areas you want to call attention to, including cheekbones, chin and forehead. It blends so well with the skin that no one can tell you are wearing concealer.

Last but definitely not least, La Prairie’s Exclusive, patented Cellular Complex helps to stimulate the skin’s natural renewal process, moisturizing and energizing with nutrients that encourage optimal functioning. Plus the price is comparable to other conceallers, considering that each Light Fantastic Cellular Concealing Brightening Eye Treatment comes with two refills. One is in the pen and the other is provided in the product tray.

THE Moisturizer

It doesn’t really matter what brand or kind of cosmetics you use, you always need a good moisturizer. And here comes Embryolisse Lait-Crème Concentré.

I was first introduced to the cream a little more then 10 years ago while modelling in Paris. On a photo shoot the make-up artist put some on my skin before doing the make-up saying that this cream will moisturize my skin throughout the day without being oily or heavy and that is perfect as primer to hold the make-up in place. Plus she told me that I can use it afterwards to remove the make-up. I was really interested since I love cosmetics and the cream became immediately number 1 on my shopping list.

This is the beginning of my Embryolisse Lait-Crème Concetré love story. And soon afterwards I couldn’t live without it. There should be a reason to be called 24-HOUR MIRACLE CREAM after all, right? The only place to buy it was at the pharmacies in France so whenever I was there I was buying few creams so I will never run out of it. Or I was asking friends to buy it for me and send it. Basically it was an never ending mission to have it. And I am so happy that now you can buy it online even on Net-a-Porter.com.

Since then Embryolisse has created a whole line of cosmetics but my favourite still remains Embryolisse Lait-Crème Concentré. It has been the must have product for make-up artists, models and celebrities for decades now. The creamy lotion is three products in one: primer, moisturizer, and make-up remover. How great is when you travel to have only one product in your vanity bag that does it all?! Its formula remains extremely simple and effective with nourishing ingredients that restores the skin’s natural glow and gives a boost to tired dehydrated skin. A true MUST HAVE. Because great skin is always in fashion!

Dior’s Rosy Glow Healthy Glow Awakening Blush will become your new best friend as well, once you’ve tried it. I promise!

I wanted to buy an every day blush that will look natural and will give my face just the perfect healthy glow. The assistant in the store suggested to try The Rosy Glow by Diorskin and when she showed it to me I almost laughed! What is the natural about this strong pink colour??? She kept insisting so I was like, well, what the heck? Let’s try it and once she sees how redicolous I will look she will understand. After all I do know it will be horrible on my face! Well, to tell you the truth, the joke was on me!

You must put just a little of the blush on top of your cheeks and you will love it at once! Diorskin Rosy Glow reacts with the moisture in each skin type, giving a delicious, subtle and beautiful look. When applied, the initially fresh, light colour develops into a rosy blush to suit each individual complexion, for an ultra–natural, tailor–made healthy glow that lasts all day. Its extra-fine, powder texture and irresistible rose fragrance offer a moment of pure indulgence with each application.

I usually use a proper professional brush to apply my blush but in this case the brush that comes with it is much better since you have to apply a tiny bit of it. The pretty packaging is also a big plus. It looks so good in my bag! :)

You can get it HERE, HERE, HERE and HERE.
